AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The challenge of efficiently accessing vehicles in dynamic parking environments where space availability changes over time, requiring subjective user judgment and manual intervention for remote control drive, is not reliably addressed by existing systems.

Method used

A parking system equipped with sensors, processors, and transmitters determines object distances and transmits alerts to user devices when access is impeded, enabling efficient remote control drive initiation without manual assessment.

Benefits of technology

The system reduces the time required to access vehicles by alerting users to access points and facilitating remote control drive, avoiding subjective analysis and power inefficiencies.

Abstract

A parking system (80) for a vehicle (12), the parking system (80) comprising: a sensor (18A, 18B, 18C, 18D); a processor (82); and a transmitter (88); wherein: the parking system (80) is configured to determine a distance between an object and a reference point of a vehicle (12) to which the parking system (80) is connectable, in dependence of an output of the sensor (18A, 18B, 18C, 18D), and when the determined distance between the object and the reference point is less than a predetermined value, the parking system (80) is configured to transmit, by the transmitter (88), a signal receivable at a user device (50) of a user of the parking system (80), the signal indicative of a state of the vehicle (12) to which the parking system is connectable.
